When the yellowtail aren't on the surface — when they're holding deep on a hard-bottom spot off the back side of Catalina, stacked on a bank out of Point Loma, or pinned to structure at the Coronados — you stop throwing surface iron and you drop the 6X. This is the yo-yo iron West Coast anglers have trusted for decades to get down to the fish and trigger a reaction bite on the way back up.
The 6X is built to sink fast and stay true on a hard, fast retrieve. You drop it to the bottom (or to the meter marks where the fish are showing), then crank it back up as fast as you can turn the handle — that's the "yo-yo." The 6X's profile holds its swimming action even at that speed instead of spinning out, which is exactly what makes a deep yellowtail commit. When they're being lazy down there, a fast, fleeing 6X is what changes their mind.
Hand-cast and hand-painted by Matt Salas right here in Southern California, every 6X comes out a little different. The slight finish and weight variations aren't flaws — they're the mark of an iron built one at a time by someone who actually fishes it. Don't expect factory-perfect paint. Expect a jig that catches fish.
Where it shines
- Deep yellowtail holding on hard bottom, banks, and high spots
- Yo-yo fishing the back side of Catalina, the Coronados, and offshore banks
- Reaction bites on fish marked deep that won't come up for surface iron
- Bonito, barracuda, and tuna that crash a fast-cranked iron
Rigging notes: Yo-yo iron demands a fast, high-capacity reel and a stout rod to move fish out of structure — fish it on 40–65 lb depending on how deep and how heavy the spot is. Heavier line and a faster retrieve are your friends down deep. Hook is pre-attached — ready to fish out of the package.
Made in Southern California. Proven from San Diego to Cabo.
